The tender, titled "Free School Meal Provision Extension – Food Vouchers," is classified under the goods category and was completed with a contract value of £172,860. The procurement method employed for this contract was limited, allowing for an award without prior publication of a call for competition, based on the rationale that only a specific economic operator, in this case, Sodexo, could provide the required services.
